This paper briefly sets out two main themes. The first is concerned with how information technology may be seen as both offering opportunities and posing problems from the perspectives of developmental psychology and education. The second delineates the main features of cognitive science and suggests ways in which it can help in formulating the solutions to some of these problems.
